Task Four: The Olympic Motto

The Olympic motto comes from a Latin phrase. It was applied to the Modern Olympic Games by their founder Baron de Courbertin in 1896. These three words encourage the athlete to give his or her best during competition, and to view this effort as a victory in itself.The sense of the motto is that being first is not necessarily a priority, but that giving one's best and striving for personal excellence is a worthwhile goal. It can apply equally to athletes and to each one of us.

1) Find out what these Latin words mean.

2) Copy and paste the icons for events that could easily correspond with each word.
